Something special

[mightymouse]

Every now and then, you see something really special, like this .416 Haugh custom bolt gun by Jack T. Haugh, a master gun maker who passed away earlier this year. Enjoy! (Not mine, of course, just posting some pics I found online.)

Seriously; thanks for sharing this...I would love to see this in person. Just absolutely beautiful.

Nice craftsmanship. What Mauser receiver is that built on?

Beautiful rifle. Love the engraving. The rear sight is truly special. First time I've seen one like that.

Too pretty to shoot ....hurts on both ends.

Agree it is just too nice. If I had it I would quickly sell it..basically worthless in my hands, I would be afraid to hunt with it.
I had a 1957 Browning sweet 16 that was flawless. I showed it to a couple collectors and kept a cloth baby diaper in my pocket to wipe the oils off from fingers touching it.
Big Boys traded me a 24" heavy barrel savage 10 FP with accutrigger new in the box for it. If I kept the shotty I would have it all scratched up and would have been rained on and may have seen mud!!!

Nice to look at those pretty things though Thanks for posting the pics.
